It's actually the stress of the emotion that's the problem.
But what causes the emotion? Let's say that it's simply when things work out or don't work out as desired.
When I had my auto accident, it certainly wasn't something I wanted. What I wanted was a smooth trip home and instead I had an accident. I felt upset, uncertain and confusion as a result of the accident.
Now if upon arriving home I had snacked or eaten excess food it would have been because I had a problem handling the upset, confusion, or uncertainty. But what caused the emotions? The auto accident, right?
So figuratively speaking, I would have been eating my auto accident. So what you might say.
It's a huge point. it looks like food, tastes like food but has nothing to do with food. Get the picture? I can stop deluding myself about food having anything to do with food. I'm eating my accident and I can eat it until I get fed up (pun intended) eating my accident.
As I look at the food, I see my dented car in the food. I stop looking at is as being ice cream, cookies, cake... Notice I'm focusing on the accident as opposed to focusing on food.
I hope what I've written make sense to you and that it wets your appetite (pun intended) to know more,
Now we don't expect that this is going to make an overnight difference although it may. What are you eating is the question? Some of my clients have been eating their jobs, their elderly parents, their accomplishments, their misbehaved children, their unrealized expectations of themselves...
